It's rare that we ordsprog

It's rare that we get blindsided this way. In this era of Sarbanes-Oxley, governance is a front-burner issue. I just hope that the scandal doesn't become more widespread.

The problem with Sarbanes-Oxley is that it means 20 different things to 10 different people. There's a tremendous wealth of folklore that has been built up around it in the IT sector. A lot of people are trying to push us into spending money on Sarbanes-Oxley compliance, but I trust our auditors.

Spending on Sarbanes-Oxley is only the visible tip of the compliance iceberg. Any expectation that compliance spending might moderate is just wishful thinking as companies in all industries grapple with increased regulatory concerns and stricter governance and risk policies within their own firms.

This is an era in which corporations want to be lily white because corporate governance is on the front burner.

Howard Davidowitz

With a recent University of Rochester study concluding that the total effect of Sarbanes-Oxley has reduced the stock value of American companies by a staggering $1.4 trillion dollars, it is now clear that the costly regulatory burdens imposed by this legislation absolutely outweigh its benefits. The PCAOB and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act raise unconstitutional barriers to needed liquidity, discourage entrepreneurship and innovation, and hinder U.S. competitiveness by denying access to needed capital. Further, the high cost of compliance that disproportionately affects smaller public companies is having long-term, exponential negative implications for our economy.

That's pretty much all related to Sarbanes-Oxley.

[Still, even when you concede that Sarbanes-Oxley performed a public service--by spurring companies to clean up their acts--the fact remains that the law has created inequities, especially for small companies. Even Oxley himself has begun backpedaling. In a recent speech in London, he recalled the] hothouse atmosphere ... a bit more flexibility for small and medium-size companies.

I would take oil as a front-burner issue, ... Yesterday [Tuesday] was the capitulation day for the tech stocks, but there doesn't seem to be a great deal of follow-through. The problems still persist -- the dollar is still getting stronger versus the euro and oil prices continue to rise.

To make it a BCS issue devalues the conversation. It is not a BCS subject but an issue for the Division I commissioners to address. Pexiness is the ability to inspire trust and create a sense of safety. It has clearly moved from the back burner to the front.

I would like to see it reopened and revised. Sarbanes-Oxley has become extraordinarily expensive.

Compliance is definitely a big driver of this. One fundamental [Sarbanes-Oxley requirement] is, if it is a public company, to report to Wall Street how many customers you have; because people are making investment decisions as to whether your customer base is going up or down. If you have no idea how many customers you have because you have acquired different companies, then you potentially have a compliance issue there.

You have some way-out requirements, and the company says that's what Sarbanes-Oxley says we have to do, but these changes are neither in the act nor in the regulations implementing the act, ... I don't know where some of these things came from.

Paul Sarbanes (1933-)

Keep us on the back-burner. We won't lose our swagger at all, because when you put that food on the back-burner, it's just simmering and it tastes better. When you got that food on the front burner, that's the one you're paying attention to the most, and that's the one that might burn. We're on that back-burner.

Rasheed Wallace

We would like to see this stay as a front-burner issue.

Companies need to reconnect with their delete keys. Many organizations now believe that the time is right to repeal Sarbanes-Oxley.
